🎲 Rank Digital Gaming (Alderney) Limited

This entity is a remote gambling operator authorised to offer online betting and gaming services to customers in Great Britain. It is currently active and holds a UK Gambling Commission operating licence. It forms part of the digital division of The Rank Group plc, a UK-based gambling group whose activities include casinos, bingo clubs and online gambling.

The company is associated with the wider Rank Group’s move into interactive and online gambling. The Rank Group’s digital operations have developed alongside its land-based Grosvenor Casinos and Mecca Bingo brands and have included both UK and Alderney-licensed activity. The digital business has been expanded through acquisitions such as Blue Square in 2003 and Stride Gaming plc in 2019, which were integrated into Rank’s interactive and online operations.

The Rank Group plc, the ultimate parent, is listed on the London Stock Exchange and has historically focused on gambling and leisure activities following a restructuring in the 1990s that refocused the group away from film and other entertainment interests. Guoco Group Limited became the majority shareholder of Rank Group in 2011, acquiring a controlling stake and retaining significant ownership thereafter.
